European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker and other EU leaders repeated their promises to tackle the migration crisis and stop more Mediterranean deaths with greater funding. Austria has proposed setting up refugee centers in north African countries with the help of international agencies and despite their initial agreement, there would not be anything like that in Libya. The Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbot whose government introduced tough measures to turn back asylum-seeker’s boats, said that the European Union should follow suit, describing it as the only way to end deaths at sea. He also added that the European Union should follow their example.
